Bias Resource and Response Team (BRRT)
In Spring 2020, the Divisions of Academic and Student Affairs partnered to reconvene a campus wide Bias Resource and Response Team (BRRT). A version of the group has existed at the college since early 2000. In it's current framework, the BRRT develops proactive strategies and response protocols that support a positive campus climate for students, faculty, and staff.
